Happy Thanksgiving, everybody.

At this moment in my life, during a holiday when we’re encouraged to count our blessings, there’s few positives and many negatives right now. But with absolute certainty, this comic and you guys keep me going when times get tough. And I’m very thankful for that.

Applejack: Ah wrote that letter just after Ah started talkin’ to Miss Jubilee. Ah knew at that point that Ah was gonna help her out for a little while as a “change of scenery.”
Rainbow Dash: Yeah, ‘cuz that doesn’t sound shady as all get out.
Rarity: Was there any coercion involved? Not just threats; did she bribe you with some kind of under-the-table incentive?
Twilight Sparkle: Did she approach you first? Does she know about our Grand Galloping Gala quest?
Applejack: No. No. No. …Yes.
Rainbow Dash: So THAT’S it! Did she steal it? Is she holding your ticket hostage?!
Applejack: For Pete’s sake, no! It just came up in casual conversation! Like Ah told you, the ticket will be taken care of!
DM: The treadmill speeds up. Three of you aren’t sorting cherries. This next roll’s going to be a doozy.
Fluttershy: Maybe Rarity or Rainbow Dash should come back?
Rainbow Dash: In a sec! We’re getting close, I can feel it!
